Watch Ansel Elgort Tell the Most Hilarious (and Embarrassing) Story on His First-Ever TV Appearance

You will laugh out loud.

It's only a matter of time before Ansel Elgort becomes the kind of star who causes a frenzy the second he steps outside. It's hard to say when, exactly, but the tipping point will happen after the March 21th release of Divergent and long before the summer debut of The Fault in Our Stars—by the time that highly-anticipated big-screen adaptation comes out, the guy will everywhere—posted up in lockers, sketched onto notebooks, screenprinted on T-shirts. For now, though, the 19-year-old is not only able to walk around his hometown of New York City without adoring girls following his every move, but, as he hilariously told Jimmy Kimmel the other night, he still gets straight-up snubbed on the subway by fans.

It was his first appearance ever on a talk show (get used to it, buddy!), and he was as fidgety and nervous as you'd expect. He was also adorable and charming and all those things you want the next Young Hollywood dreamboat to be. Ansel said a bunch of sweet, self-deprecating things, like that he only took ballet because of the favorable guy-to-girl ratio, and that being compared to Twilight-era Rob Pattinson leaves him speechless (quite literally).
